Got up and walked the dog (or did she walk me? It was 5:30!) made triple espresso, went back to bed to drink it, made breakfast and enjoyed on the deck (and shared with the canine being), went to Trader Joe's for some staples, put those away, brought the bicycle to the shop to be check-out and fitted with a back rack and some handsome saddlebags (it will take a week, they are swamped), went to the local annual plant sale but they did not have herbs so went instead to the local garden shop and got lemon grass, tarragon, and silver thyme to complete my plantings, got home and planted those plus parsley, cilantro, dill, and Thai basil, washed up, and now thinking about lunch, and the rest of the day (I need to start playing with those wet dreams, but that's another thread!).....
